Become a proud graduate of Pickle U. this weekend at the Farmer’s Kitchen. Think of the class like a Classics 101–no newfangled modernist pickles like squash or peaches, just cukes in their many pickled forms. If you want a degree in Kosher dills, bread & butter, and hotdog relish, this University should be your top pick.

Hollywood’s Farmer’s Kitchen is a new project of the Sustainable Economic Enterprises of Los Angeles, and an extension of the Hollywood Farmer’s Market. Proceeds from their cafe and classes goes toward nutritional classes and food prep training for low-income locals. A worthy and delicious cause!
